AES/EBU Input

The Digital Thru S/PDIF port on this speaker is then connected to the Digital In port on the other speaker to supply it with its digital audio input.

Digital input section

DSM1 speakers accept digital input at the AES/EBU Digital Input (XLR connector) and the S/PDIF Digital Input.

Only one digital input connector (AES/EBU In or S/PDIF In) may be active at a time. If the speaker receives digital input from more than one digital connector, digital lock may not be achieved and noise or distortion may result.

Connecting Digital Sources

AES/EBU and S/PDIF digital protocols carry two channels of audio (left and right). If you are us- ing a digital source, you can connect it to either the AES Digital In or the S/PDIF In of one of the DSM1 speakers. (It does not matter which speaker is connected to the source.)

Digital Channel Assignment

When using digital input, you must configure the Channel Assign switches on the back of each speaker to set whether that speaker plays the Left or Right signal channel, accordingly.
